Productive: An Interactive Audio Workshop, Sun April 6

[Martha Williams]

Led by sound designer Norm Scott www.normscott.com and director/choreographer Martha Williams www.themovementmovement.org

For curious artists, dancers/choreographers, video-ists; students of all of these who want to interface their medium with sound and wonder how to do that or where to begin; or for folks who simply want to learn more about sound making process.

In this interactive workshop, participants will have an opportunity to actually be a part of the recording and compositional process. They will go "out into the streets" to record that will later be contributed to a short score. Prior to the field trip portion of the class, we will discuss the formulas and limits for sound collection and the meaning and relevance of intention and limits in the creative process. We will especially look at how we can infuse the theme, which is “productivity," every step of the way. Upon collection of sound, we will return to engage in the interactive compositional portion of the day concluding with a real live useable score that will (in some form) be a part of The Movement Movement's full length evening contemporary dance piece premiering at the Joyce SoHo in June 2008.
